Crumple the fringes of teh yellow shape towards teh center to form a small round shape. Create crease lines on the petals of teh peony patterns. Attach the peony patterns criss-cross wise. Attach the black pattern on the center of the flower and then attach teh yellow ball pattern on the center of the black fringed round shape. 

Making Paper Cosmos Flower

Trace and cut out the cosmos flower patterns on colored craft paper of your choice and trace the strip on yellow craft paper. Use the yellow strip to make lose coil shape. Create crease lines on the cutout cosmos flower patterns, from the tip of each petal towards the center. Glue the flower patterns together criss-cross wise and then add the loose coil on the center of the flower.

Making Paper Daisy

Prepare the daisy patterns on craft papers. Create crease lines on the petals from the center towards the tip of each petal. Use the spiral shape to create a rolled flower pattern. Cut fringes around the outer surface of the round shape. Attach the small flower to the big flower criss-cross wise. Stick the round fringed cutout on the center of the flower and then stick the spiral pattern on the center of the round fringed pattern.

Making Paper Poppy Flower

Take the big round cutout and crumple the fringes towards the center to create a small ball shape. Once again, attach the flower cutouts together criss-cross wise. Attach the round fringed shape on the center and then attach the crumpled paper on the black round shape center.

How to Make Paper Flower Wreath

Step 1: Making Paper Leaves and Gathering the Flowers

Trace and cut out the leaf patterns from green-colored craft papers. You may follow this tutorial on making paper leaves. Prepare the wreath base from cardstock paper or simply use a store-bought one. Place the base on a flat surface and gather all the paper flowers and leaves. 

Step 2: Attaching Flowers on the Base

Apply glue on the backside of the flowers and stick them on the base. Arrange the flowers nicely on the base, try to fill the base with the paper flowers as much as possible.

Step 3: Filling the Gaps with Leaves

Done attaching the flowers on the base? Now stick leaves to fill any gap between the flowers. Add as many paper leaves as you want, it’s a summer craft after all!

Once the wreath is complete, attach a hanging mechanism on the backside to complete the wreath and hang it on a wall!
